Tandem Cycling for Everyone

New York City’s only dedicated tandem cycling program — connecting sighted riders with cyclists who are blind or have low vision for weekly rides, events, and community.

InTandem Cycling is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization whose mission is to provide tandem cycling programs to people who are blind, have low vision, or cannot ride independently due to other disabilities.

Get Involved

Become a Captain

Captains ride up front and provide safe navigation. Meet new people and share your joy of cycling with people who might otherwise be stuck on the sideline. InTandem provides a thorough training on bike safety, tandem riding techniques and communication, and disability awareness.

Become a Stoker

Stokers sit on the back of the tandem and ‘stoke the engine,’ powering the bike. If you cannot ride a bike independently, try riding a tandem with one of our well-trained captains. We will provide you with an individualized orientation and provide necessary accommodations. No cycling experience is necessary.

Volunteer with InTandem

Even if you are not a cycling enthusiast, there are many opportunities for you to volunteer with InTandem. Come watch and care for guide dogs while their owners ride, ensure everyone gets an equal opportunity and help out as needed.
